Recently completed:The 250,000,000 Mile Gang and the Secret MoonYou know you have to have a dog before you can have a proper adventure? When you're stuck on an asteroid mining station there are no dogs nearer than Earth. Henry, Vangi, Silver and Tam are allowed, sometimes, to use a small spaceship but there's nowhere to go. They EVA to school every day which is boring because you can't fool around in a space suit. To remedy the lack they vid-link to Jess the labrador and her owner. Soon after they establish the link they do have an adventure. The 250,000,000 space-mile link proves vital when a multi-planetary corporation claims title to the tiny moon they discover and, when the claim is dropped in suspicious circumstances, to expose criminals who are defrauding another mining station and threatening the survival of an entire community. Work in progress:Steaming Purple Magic Splodgethe seaside can be surprisingly hard work. Well it can be if your parents want to leave London and start a quiet business in the West Country. |
